<description>&lt;p&gt;Way back in the distant past, I was working on a podcast series about hydro electric power stations in New Zealand. I did three episodes back before the baby, then there was a large gap. The fourth episode came out in 2020, but I couldn’t quite make it into an annual thing. The final episode is about Clyde Dam, and like the dam itself, this project blew through multiple deadlines (and also word limits). I even manage to shoe-horn a movie review into the middle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you haven’t listened to the previous episodes, this will still make sense - but if you have time, you can go back and get up to speed with the story. As mentioned, I think it’s the last episode - I’ve covered off all the major dams - but never say never. Maybe I’ll do some bonus episodes about boutique dams that didn’t make the cut.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This is a public episode.
